Certified Pre-Owned by C7Skates

Not all skates go from box to street. Some were displayed at expos, rolled briefly in photoshoots, or returned when the size didn’t fit. Instead of letting them go to waste, we give them a second life through our Certified Pre-Owned program.

Inspected, Sanitized & Certified

Your safety and comfort come first. Every Certified Pre-Owned pair goes through:

When a pair earns our Certified Pre-Owned badge, you can trust it’s safe, clean, and C7-approved.

Certified Pre-Owned FAQs

Are Certified Pre-Owned skates clean?

Yes! Every pair is professionally cleaned and sanitized by the C7Skates crew before being listed. Fresh laces or parts may be swapped in when needed, so you can feel confident about hygiene.

Are they safe to use?

Absolutely. Each pair goes through a multi-point safety inspection. We test the wheels, trucks, and stoppers to make sure performance is up to C7 standards. Only skates that pass our checklist earn the Certified Pre-Owned badge.

Why are these skates discounted?

Pre-owned skates come from situations like:

  • Displayed at expos/events
  • Used briefly for photoshoots
  • Customer returns due to sizing
  • Excess inventory


They’re still in great shape, but since they can’t be sold as brand-new, you get up to
50% off.

Do they come with a warranty?

Certified Pre-Owned skates include a 30-day limited warranty covering safety and function (but not cosmetic wear). This gives you peace of mind while keeping the program affordable.

Can I return or exchange them?

Certified Pre-Owned skates are Final Sale. To help you feel confident, we:

  • Provide detailed sizing guides
  • Share condition notes and clear product photos
  • Guarantee each pair has been inspected and approved. However, something things can go wrong. So we offer a 7-day exchange-only window for sizing mistakes — no refunds.
What condition should I expect?

We grade every pair so you know what you’re getting:

  • Like New – tried indoors, minimal wear
  • Lightly Loved – small cosmetic marks, full performance
  • Well-Traveled – visible wear, best price
Why should I buy Certified Pre-Owned instead of new?
  • Big savings — same C7 quality, lower cost.
  • Sustainable choice — extend the life of gear, reduce waste.
  • Same fun — all the joy of skating, certified and ready to roll!
